THROW THE BOOKS AT THEM

Okay, the confetti has stopped floating from the rafters of the Staples Center, and hopefully the Chicago Blackhawks have sucked the last drop of Jack Daniels out of the Stanley Cup and shaved those hideous beards they sported during the playoffs and fans of those two teams can get down to something important—RELIVING THE MEMORIES OF THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP FOREVER!

Okay, that plug was about as subtle as a fairwell manifesto from Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert.

We’ve got the Lakers and Blackhawk’s championship books for sale for anyone interested.  Click on the book cover on my home page and you’ll be in our bookstore.

They are the two best books we’ve cranked out in the last couple years, and if you’re a fan of those teams, you’ll love it.

It was wild putting them together.

Okay—I’m not afraid to publicly say I don’t like the Boston Celtics. I’m so happy Phil Jackson was able to further distance himself from Red Auerbach in career championships, and seeing the trio of Garnett, Pierce and Allen walk off the court defeated, dejected and devastated was like Christmas morning all over again. It would have been a true struggle for my anti-Celtics bias to not shine through, and I don’t think I would have been able to hide it.

Oh, and as I write this, we’re seriously contemplating a book on LeBron joining forces with Dwyane Wade and ‘bringing his talents to South Beach.’ We’re checking with book stores in Miami and South Florida now to see what kind of demand there will be, and if fans want it, we’ll have tens of thousands on bookstore shelves next week.

So—stay tuned!
